Expert financial planner NDB Wealth has opened registrations for its Private Wealth Management (PWM) Junior Masters Golf Championships 2016, the second edition of its junior golf showcase.
To be held on August 19 at the Royal Colombo Golf Course, the PWM Junior Masters Golf Championships 2016 is now open for online entry submissions on www.ndbwealth.com.
"Interested parties are encouraged to click the “Register Now” button on the homepage of the NDB Wealth website, which will continue to accept entries until August 15," NDB stated in a press release.
NDB Wealth CEO Prabodha Samarasekera said; “Golf is that perfect blend of commitment, planning, foresight, calculation and ambition which is also unsurprisingly the foundation of exemplary financial planning. As such, NDB Wealth is pleased to once again host a junior golf tournament that aids young Sri Lankans in maximising their potential."
“Interestingly, with entries now being accepted online for the tournament this event will attract a number of foreign entries which not only raise the level of competition but also help showcase our country as an international destination for sports tourism,” added Samarasekera.
Participant categories at the PWM Junior Masters Golf Championships 2016 have been restructured to align with the National Junior Golf Rankings.
It is an initiative by the Sri Lanka Golf Union, in partnership with NDB Wealth, to foster junior golfers based on their performance at recognized tournaments.
The National Junior Golf Rankings encompass a Gold age group of 15 to 17 years, a Silver age group of 12 to 14 years, a Bronze age group of 10 to 11 years and a Copper age group of 9 years and below.
In keeping with this structure, tournament rewards have also been increased to reflect the added category. As such, four category winners, along with first and second runner-ups in each category will each receive NDB Wealth accounts of significant value in 2016.
Last year’s inaugural PWM Junior Masters Golf Championships featured a strong field of over 50 junior golfers of all ages with Darren Hall lifting his hard won NDB Wealth Challenge Trophy, a result of an excellent overall score.
In addition, Darren also secured the top prize for the Gold Under-18 Division, while Taniya Minel and Yannik Kumara won their respective Silver Under-15 Division and Bronze Under-11 Division titles.
All three also earned hefty Rs. 100,000 NDB Wealth accounts which serve as investments into their future.
